As you already know, I am a total sucker for good packaging and great marketing. So you know I was totally hooked the moment I discovered the new Dominique Cosmetics Celestial Storm eyeshadow palette. First, there is the name – Celestial Storm. It makes me feel like some kind of exotic dark weather goddess. For …
Just like people, makeup brands have their own personalities. For example, some brands are known for being cool and hip. Others are known for being elite and expensive. Surprisingly, there are even brands who are known to be overhyped and not as effective as others. Notably, we as shoppers tend to pick makeup brands that …
A couple of weeks ago I talked about how some makeup launches are planned and marketed for months, and others come out of nowhere.

Have you ever stumbled onto something amazing by accident? For example, you’re walking around the grocery store and you find that one thing that’s going to solve the craving you’ve been having for a week.

My formative makeup years were full of Bath & Body Works body glitter, butterfly clips, frosted eyeshadow, and white eyeliner. Think Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, and Mandy Moore (way before This Is Us). But when I think about …
